Things You Don't See Anymore Part 3

Still on a dairy kick...buttermilk, seems to have disappeared from store shelves.

What part of PA are you in? We have several dairies that make buttermilk that is sold in stores around Johnstown, PA.

For some reason we put these on the backs of out Baracuta jackets.

It seems these jackets are almost $400.00 now!

I met someone this weekend who was wearing a harrington with STP printed pattern inside instead of the usual check.
On a side note, I was surprised to find out how much Barracudas are now too. I used to find them at thrift shops all the time for 5 bucks back in High school. I've always had one and coughed up $200 for a used one :(
 
STP was the street name for a very briefly used hallucinogen in the 1960s. The stickers started out as a "sly" way to proclaim drug-world connections..."hey, look, I'm talking about drugs and mom doesn't get it!". Then it morphed into one of those things that's trendy but nobody knows why... kinda like Big Daddy Roth's "Surfer Cross".

Have we covered these things in this thread yet (pun intended :)).

I was obsessed with building these in my early teens. I built one a week for a long time. My room was full of them. I think they all just disintegrated or something cuz I have no idea where they all went.

I tried to build one as an adult but just didn't have the patience. It seemed like a waste of time for some reason. I may buy another one day. Maybe start a model building club or something - hey... there's an idea.

In your teens you probavly used noxious wood cement that had to set overnight. Frustrating. These days we use CA. You can build one in a few hours.

Ahah!

Kinda like the “DARE” stickers in the Reagan era. Every high school pot head I knew had one on their car.
